The placement of key fields - such as name, address, social security number, account number and barcode - is critical to the data capture process. Key fields should be located near the top of the page whenever possible to account for any shifts during scanning. If the important information is placed at the top, there is less of an offset than at the bottom of the page, reducing the chance of errors in processing.

Use appropriate response mechanisms. Paper forms have the disadvantage that users can miss, or simply disregard, an instruction. For example, only tick/check one box from a list of 15 or 20 options. In this context interactive forms can be programmed so that the user can only tick/check one (known as a radio button as distinct from check-boxes), or presented with the options in a drop-down menu from which the user can only select one. When designing forms make sure the response mechanism is appropriate to each question. Having gone to all the trouble of filling in your form, the least you can do is provide users with information about what happens next. Customer communication is key, and since you have made the form so easy to fill in and return, processing it could also be a breeze!
